A new research report by Geological Survey of Finland GTK presents an assessment of Finland’s current and prospective contribution to the European battery value chain. It confirms that the country already supplies significant nickel and cobalt from mine to refinery and could broaden extraction and
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) EV battery prices have decreased dramatically over the past few years, mainly due to the fall in prices of critical battery metals: Lithium, cobalt and nickel. For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000 per metric ton in to about $30,000 in .
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, which produces 64% of the global cobalt supply, demand is expected to grow by 7.5% annually until , despite it playing a decreasing role in battery chemistry. Challenges associated with cobalt include ethical sourcing and price instability, intensifying the
A year ago, as T&E estimated that two-thirds of Europe’s announced battery plans are at risk, the EU announced a raft of measures in response to the US Inflation Reduction Act. So one year on, what does the progress in building battery supply chains look like? This report analyses the progress, as
Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: "BAT"; “the Company”) a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announces that FinnCobalt Oyj (formerly Vulcan Hautalampi Oy) has informed the
Currently, Terrafame’s cobalt is sold as part of nickel concentrate, but the company has decided to invest close to €300m ($339m) for a cobalt and nickel sulphate plant, with production scheduled to start in . In addition to its mining operation, Keliber is also constructing a chemical plant to

Will the EU have enough minerals to drive their electric dreams
The results have shown that there will be a crisis in the graphite supply by the end of the decade and a considerable danger to the supply of nickel and cobalt due to the
McKinsey: Is the Battery Supply Sustainable?
By , this figure is projected to increase to 95%. Innovations such as direct lithium extraction are progressing, yet demand continues to outpace supply, underscoring the
An Industrial Blueprint for Batteries in Europe
Manganese is increasingly being considered as a potential substitute for cobalt and even nickel in certain cathode chemistries (e.g. LMR-NMC, LNMO, LMFP), thanks to its abundance, cost
High grade cobalt and nickel at Hautalampi project in
The high-grade intersection of 1.59% cobalt and 1.40% nickel is particularly pleasing and confirms the potential of the Project. We look forward to receiving the remaining assay results in the coming weeks”, said Roberto
